"La Cage Aux Folles" is a boisterous and hilarious story about Georges, the suave owner of a popular glitzy drag nightclub on the French Riviera, who is partnered with a performer.

The hilarity really shifts into high gear when the bride-to-be's parents want to meet their future son-in-law's parents.
